——————————————-<\/p>\n
\u00e5\u008f\u00a4\u00e4\u00bb\u00a3 – \u00e3\u0081\u201c\u00e3\u0081\u00a0\u00e3\u0081\u201e – ancient times
\n\u00e5\u00b7\u00a8\u00e5\u00a4\u00a7 – \u00e3\u0081\u008d\u00e3\u201a\u2021\u00e3\u0081\u00a0\u00e3\u0081\u201e – giant

\n\u00e7\u2122\u00bd\u00e9\u00bb\u2019 – \u00e3\u0081\u2014\u00e3\u201a\u008d\u00e3\u0081\u008f\u00e3\u201a\u008d – black and white<\/p>\n
I like the phrase \u00e2\u20ac\u0153\u00e5\u008f\u00a4\u00e4\u00bb\u00a3\u00e3\u0081\u00ae\u00e5\u00b7\u00a8\u00e5\u00a4\u00a7\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. The similarity of the sounds is a nice combination of alliteration and rhyme.<\/p>\n
The basic properties of the bird are disclosed in the second sentence:<\/p>\n

\u00e4\u00ba\u00ba\u00e9\u2013\u201c – \u00e3\u0081\u00ab\u00e3\u201a\u201c\u00e3\u0081\u2019\u00e3\u201a\u201c – human being
\n\u00e8\u0192\u0152\u00e4\u00b8\u02c6 – \u00e3\u0081\u203a\u00e3\u0081\u0178\u00e3\u0081\u2018 – height
\n\u00e5\u00a4\u2030\u00e3\u201a\u008f\u00e3\u201a\u2030\u00e3\u0081\u00ac – \u00e3\u0081\u2039\u00e3\u201a\u008f\u00e3\u201a\u2030\u00e3\u0081\u00ac – constant\/same
\n\u00e4\u00bd\u201c\u00e9\u2022\u00b7 - \u00e3\u0081\u0178\u00e3\u0081\u201e\u00e3\u0081\u00a1\u00e3\u201a\u2021\u00e3\u0081\u2020 – length<\/p>\n
So the first part of the sentence says the bird was equal in length to human height.<\/p>\n
\u00e8\u00b5\u00a4\u00e8\u0152\u00b6 – \u00e3\u0081\u201a\u00e3\u0081\u2039\u00e3\u0081\u00a1\u00e3\u201a\u0192 – reddish-brown
\n\u00e7\u0081\u00b0\u00e8\u2030\u00b2 – \u00e3\u0081\u00af\u00e3\u0081\u201e\u00e3\u0081\u201e\u00e3\u201a\u008d – gray
\n\u00e7\u00be\u00bd – \u00e3\u0081\u00af\u00e3\u0081\u00ad – feathers
\n\u00e8\u00ba\u00ab\u00e3\u0081\u00ab\u00e3\u0081\u00be\u00e3\u0081\u00a8\u00e3\u0081\u2020 – \u00e3\u0081\u00bf\u00e3\u0081\u00ab\u00e3\u0081\u00be\u00e3\u0081\u00a8\u00e3\u0081\u2020 – be dressed in, covered in<\/p>\n
So the bird was the height of a human and covered in reddish brown and gray feathers.<\/p>\n
The \u00e3\u20ac\u0152\u00e3\u0081\u00a8\u00e3\u0081\u201e\u00e3\u0081\u2020\u00e3\u20ac\u008dat the end indicates that this is what the researchers are saying, making it somewhat clear that this is not certain but is speculation, although based on research and evidence.<\/p>\n
